BT are now offering a free service that protects you from
unwanted sales calls or canvassing calls, on condition that you
remain with (or revert to) BT for calls and line rental, at their
rates ! In fact the components of this service are quite freely
available without such constraints.
Call the Telephone Preference Service on 0845 070 0707 and register
your line. That will protect you from the attentions of law-abiding
UK-based telesales organisations. Ask us to arrange free Caller
Display on your line. This may reveal the caller details before you
answer the call. These are the two components parts of the BT
offer.
To bar callers who do not respect the Telephone Preference Service
strictures, we can arrange the Choose to Refuse service (£2.67 per
month) on your line. This enables you to zap the origin of specific
calls after hanging up, so it does not happen again. More
drastically, and to guard against callers who do not disclose their
origin, we can arrange the Anonymous Caller Reject service at £1.50
per month. See Line Rental for a description
of these services and how to operate them .
